Notable buildings
- The 1926 Byzantine Revival facade of Congregation Ohab Zedek between Amsterdam and Columbus Avenue.
- The 1916 House of the Redeemer, one of the finest Italian Renaissance revival-styled townhouses in New York, is located at 7 East 95th Street.
- The two blocks that run between Central park West and Amsterdam Avenues are notable for particularly fine and eclectic town houses. The Gothic Claude A. Vissani House at 143 W. 95th is particularly interesting. Other nearby homes are done in a variety of Classical, Renaissance, and eclectic styles. [2]
